Well, he does have a lot of history with this team, but I do not know if he is ready for the dysfunction within the team.  According to Adam Schefter, the Jets are hiring former Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn as their new head coach.

I'm liking a number of the picks yet my version is a bit different since I go with players on certain teams getting drafted to the reverse of where they are

example

Warm weather players going to cold weather teams  (Green Bay, Seattle, Boston, Buffalo, Pittsburgh)

Southern players (Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, Auburn and such) going to teams with expensive zip codes like Rams, Giants, Jets, 49ers, Miami

Northern players (Michigan, Notre Dame, Washington, Boston College and such) going to southern teams like Atlanta, Tampa, Dallas, Carolina

Sometimes I'm way off on a few but I like watching to see who goes where in the event they have to do the walk of shame and smile for the cameras anyway knowing they are stuck somewhere for the next 4-5 years hoping they can last that long

Time will tell if this gamble pays off.  According to Adam Schefter, the Raiders and Pete Carroll agreed on a three-year deal to make Carroll their new head coach.

The most high-profile job has been taken.  Cowboys owner, president and general manager Jerry Jones told Adam Schefter that they are hiring offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer as their new head coach.

Karma is a beautiful thing.  There is a great article from Sam Wickersham and Don Van Natta Jr. about how former Washington Redskins/Washington Football Team/Washington Commanders owner Daniel Snyder views the team’s resurgence from afar with insiders saying, “He… hates it.”

[InThe313]

Stop it, they’re already dead!  The Eagles tied an NFL playoff record with seven rushing touchdowns and advanced to Super Bowl LIX on Feb. 9 in New Orleans with a 55-23 rout of the Commanders.

UPDATE:  Here we go again!  The Chiefs are back in the Super Bowl after topping the nemesis Bills, 32-29, in the AFC title game and will attempt a historic three-peat against the Eagles.

Nobody wants to play football in Cleveland because it only brings pain.  Browns defensive end Myles Garrett has requested a trade out of Cleveland.

[InThe313]

I hate seeing a beautiful relationship collapse.  The Rams informed wide receiver Cooper Kupp they “will be seeking a trade immediately.”  He said he wanted to end his career with the team.

[InThe313]

Was there any doubt?  Bills quarterback Josh Allen was named AP NFL MVP for the first time in his career.  Allen is the third Bill to win the award, joining O. J. Simpson and Thurman Thomas.

[InThe313]

The hype was real for this union, but so was the disappointment.  Sources told Adam Schefter that quarterback Aaron Williams is unlikely to return to the Jets next season.

[InThe313]

Somebody is feeling 22.  The Eagles’ birthday boy Cooper DeJean intercepted the Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes to become the second rookie with a pick-six in the Super Bowl.  Updates to come.

UPDATE:  I don’t think anybody has this score on their bingo card.  The Eagles are shutting out the Chiefs, 24-0.  It is the second-largest Super Bowl halftime lead.  The Chiefs have 24 total yards.

UPDATE 2:  Somebody play “Fly, Eagles Fly”!  The Eagles dethroned the two-time defending champion Chiefs, 40-22, for their second Super Bowl title.

UPDATE 3:  We should start looking forward to next season.  The early NFL power rankings are here.  There are two AFC teams at the top and the Eagles are out of the Top 3.  Here’s the full rankings.

1.  Chiefs
2.  Bills
3.  Lions
4.  Eagles
5.  Ravens
6.  Commanders
7.  Packers
8.  Chargers
9.  Bengals
10.  Vikings
11.  Texans
12.  Rams
13.  49ers
14.  Broncos
15.  Seahawks
16.  Buccaneers
17.  Steelers
18.  Cowboys
19.  Falcons
20.  Dolphins
21.  Cardinals
22.  Bears
23.  Colts
24.  Patriots
25.  Panthers
26.  Jaguars
27.  Saints
28.  Raiders
29.  Jets
30.  Browns
31.  Giants
32.  Titans

Now come the Vegas odds of how many Eagles fans will get arrested during victory parade the low end says minimum 50

I'm okay with KC losing 3 peat would have been nice but they had all kinds of pressure on them from other places going in I think the shit show half time really took the fight out of them
